I love my school. It has tons of clubs from chess to gardening to hip hop culture. We have over 800 students and the teachers listen to us if they have the time and we have a problem. I wouldn't have chosen anywhere else to go before or after I got there. Sure I feel like i'm being challenged too much from time to time but my teachers are very supportive and rarely can you ever fail a class without a teacher having to breathe down your neck to get you back on track! I am a 9th grader at King and I love it!

I am a present sophmore at King Collefe Prep High School. Now that we are under leadership of Mr.Wright. The school is making progress. He is really onw of the best principals I have ever had. He is very invovled with the students and the parents. The teaches are great! Ther are hardcore and are willing to help you with anything. Some teahcers even help with personal life. Besides a few things, King is a great school.

With the appointment of Mr. Wright as Principal of King, I must say that the school is on the right track. In the past King did not have much leadership due to the fact that the Principalship was interim. Now that there is a an appointed Principal the school has a great opportunity to advance and hold its own place in competition with the likes of Whitney Young; Northside Prep, Jones, and Payton. I believe in Mr. Wright, he owns the school like it is his home and each student is his child. I am a parent of a incoming senior for the Class of 2008. I have stood with King on shakey ground and am proud to say that Mr. Jeffrey Wright is laying a firm foundation, and we as a school family are feeling the support.

This school, thought it had alot of potential, is not living up to a 'college prep'. This partly could be blamed on the students, but it all roots back to the administartation. We have great teachers who actually really want to teach, but because of the lack of discipline and security, there are more teachers disciplining than teaching.
